LARGE PLAYGROUND FOR SHAU KEI WAN RESIDENTS
To Provide Much Needed Recreational Facilities
Residents of densely-populated Shau Kei Wan will soon have a
large playground to provide them with much needed sports and recreational
facilities.
The new playground, which will be built on the concrete roof
of the Shau Kei Wan Service Reservoir near Holy Cross Path Village, will
have an approximate area of 1.8 acres when completed. It will be the
largest recreation centre of the district.
The playground will have a turfed soccer pitch and a hard-surfaced
basketball court together with a changing room with toilet and shower
facilities.
Nine park benches will also be installed for the convenience of
spectators, and additional railing will be built along the edge of the
reservoir roof for safety purposes.
Construction is expected to begin in early May and should take
about four months to complete.
